First of all,thanks to Nami for his birthday present,a rough cut of his novel,Pengejar Bintang(Star Chaser).So far I already read in detail about 8 chapters,and somehow he is trying to question some stagnancy in Malaysian thinking culture.Quite sarcastic,especially about Malay teenage girls,dog as pet in Malay culture and marriage(I read it in glance,by the way).

According from Nami,when he wrote that book,he listened to In Utero almost 9 times a day just to finish up his work.He also listening to some Seattle bands,such as Pearl Jam,Alice in Chain and Pearl Jam for this.What I can feel from this book,he really want to revive back Cobainism in early 90s era.

Probably dogmatic if you're stick into one era and never move at all,but for me reviving something cool stuff like Cobainism are not dogmatic after all.Probably Cobain himself create his own music,heavy influence from some punk rock bands in 70s.

Suffered from bipolar and schizophrenia,both Nami and Cobain are re-shaped my mindset.I don't know,from Cobain's music and from Nami's writing,I found a new view for myself.Perhaps it's okay if we stick to one,even though it's look old fashioned and stagnant.

Anyway,who needs Lady GaGa when we can enjoy Janis Joplin?Who needs Adam Lambert when we can enjoy Kurt Cobain?

About Me

I refused to accept any dogmatic points of view,is that a part of dogma too?Dogma also point of view,if you don't want to accept it,then you're also a dogmatic person.Think about it,a dogma hater is a dogmatic person itself.
So,it's makes me look very dogmatic.
